This blog was originally published beginning in 2003. Then, in 2009, I accidentally deleted it. Oops. This is my tedious reissue of the blog. It is in progress and probably will be for some time.

Well, the children are gone. Away they go on to high school. I wish them luck.

And now summer begins. I will be busy this summer. I am going on a trip home next weekend and then on to a conference in the mountains for a week. When I get back from there, I am moving all my belongings into storage and then I am going to New Hampshire to work at a summer camp.

My blogging may become spotty and unpredictable. It may or may not pertain to teaching at all. It is a mystery.

If you lose touch with me over the summer, make sure to tune back in August 17th when First Year Teacher officially becomes a Third Year Teacher.

Good teachers are rare; great teachers are rarer still. A great teacher is not just a capable professional but is foremost an extraordinary human being. A good teacher can help you climb the ladder of achievement but a great teacher does more. He/She helps you in redefining your sense of self.

"First Year Teacher"Two of your blogs are being considered for use in the next edition of The Act of Teaching (McGraw-Hill). If you would send me an email that permits them to be published, we can move forward with that decision. Thanks.Don CruickshankProfessor EmeritusOhio State Universitycruickshank.1@osu.edu
